An EM interference phenomenon may be summed up in Figure R31 below.

Fig. R31: EM interference phenomenon The different sources of disturbances are:

  • Radio-frequency emissions

  - Wireless communication systems (radio, TV, CB, radio telephones, remote controls)
  - Radar

  • Electrical equipment

  - High-power industrial equipment (induction furnaces, welding machines, stator control systems)
  - Office equipment (computers and electronic circuits, photocopy machines, large monitors)
  - Discharge lamps (neon, fluorescent, flash, etc.)
  - Electromechanical components (relays, contactors, solenoids, current interruption devices)

  • Power systems

  - Power transmission and distribution systems
  - Electrical transportation systems

  • Lightning
  • Electrostatic discharges (ESD)
  • Electromagnetic nuclear pulses (EMNP)

The potential victims are:

  • Radio and television receivers, radar, wireless communication systems
  • Analogue systems (sensors, measurement acquisition, amplifiers, monitors)
  • Digital systems (computers, computer communications, peripheral equipment)

The different types of coupling are:

  • Common-mode impedance (galvanic) coupling
  • Capacitive coupling
  • Inductive coupling
  • Radiated coupling (cable to cable, field to cable, antenna to antenna)
